Hi,<div><br></div><div>Some of you who are working on this wonderful education project may never have experienced the joy of actually being in a classroom...as a teacher. This was sent to me by a retired teacher friend. I have no doubt that somewhere, at some time every one of these things happened...perhaps more than once. This is why when developing software for children the mantra should be "expect the unexpected". Enjoy!</div><div><br></div><div>Caryl <br><br><hr id="stopSpelling"><div><blockquote><span class="EC_Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse:separate;color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Helvetica;font-size:16px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:normal;text-align:auto;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px"><div style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px"><div style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px"><div style="font-size:12pt;font-family:'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px"><div style="font-size:12pt;font-family:'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px"><div style="font-size:12pt;font-family:'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px"><div style="font-size:12pt;font-family:'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px"><div style="margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px"><font face="Arial" size="2"><br><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"> Kids Are Quick<span class="EC_Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>____________________________________<span class="EC_Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>TEACHER: Maria, go to the map and find North America .<span class="EC_Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>MARIA: Here it is.<span class="EC_Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>TEACHER: Correct.
